How to show more than one track - RoboD - 05.02.2012

Hi!

At first I thank you for the awesome awesome app Christian! It is very useful for me!

I've got a small qestion. Is it possible to show more than one track at the same time in the map?


Best regards from Poland

Robert

It is not possible. And (as far as I know) there is no realistic chance to achieve such feature.

You may...

A) add a track behind an existing track. A straight line will connect both tracks.

B) use a file format that is capable to save several position lists in a single file. Look >>>here<<< for details.

What I would like to do...

I open first track (1), next I open second one (2). I compare both of them and correcting for example only track (2). Track (1) is used only like a layer to compare.

Hi Robert,

the "best" way to achieve this currently is to load track 1 and then import track 2 into the same position list. Then compare them, fix track 1 and remove the positions of track 2 afterwards again.

Thanks.

Your advice is some kind to achieve my purpose. A little disadvantage this technique is all the tracks have the same colour.

There are two main limitations currently in RouteConverter that get in the way of a simpler solution:
  • it's map implementation is designed for just one position list and extending this would be a big task
  • I haven't seen a simple user interface interaction yet how the user might decide on the color of parts of the track
Any help is appreciated.
